Vacation in Dalmatia

Island Hvar, Dalmatia

One of Hvar Island’s small towns, Stari Grad, was site to the beginning of human settlements in the Adriatic Islands during the Antiquity. This town is most visited as it is the main sea port on the island. Other smaller islands are found around the southern coast of Hvar in Dalmatia, Croatia.
Colonized by the Greeks in the 4th century BC inhabitants later resisted the act resulting in victory giving Croatia the oldest known inscriptions. Slavic tribes occupied Hvar in the early Middle Ages. It wasn’t until the 11th century that the island became part of the Croatian realm.
Amongst its rich and exciting history, Hvar has a lot more to offer tourists. A small yet beautiful town, Sucuraj, is on the East Cape populated only by 400 people. The countryside is eye catching and climate is mild. Jelsa is a more populated town and is located in the central-northern part. The island itself is named the sunniest Croatian island.
